Lily hates Christmas.

Last Christmas Eve, her cheating girlfriend Tasha left her. Ever since then, Lily's held a grudge against the holiday season.

But this Christmas Eve, while she's on her way to a family gathering in the mountains, Lily swerves on the wintry road to avoid hitting a black kitten--and crashes her car into an avalanche of snow.

So, carless, and with the kitten curled against her, Lily seeks shelter in a nearby cabin...and the woman who answers the door just might help her believe in holiday magic--and love--again.
